This book adopts a cultivation technique using yellow sand substrate in the desert, making agricultural production possible. In Gobi Desert around the world, it is usually not suitable for agricultural production. However, through solar greenhouse facility technology, agricultural production can be achieved in the Gobi Desert. Due to labor shortage, coupled with high labor cost, facility mechanization plays an important role in Gobi Desert agricultural production. Currently, there is no book describing the mechanization technology progress in Gobi Desert production. This book provides researchers, especially graduates, tips for Gobi Desert facility agriculture and agricultural production terms of self-propelled trenching and film covering machine, seedling transplanting machinery, water and fertilizer integration system, and spraying mechanisms. All these very innovative technologies have been developed, and some have been commercially applied for Gobi Desert agricultural production. This book will benefit researchers, especially the newbies by providing cutting-edge knowledge, for those who are interested in facility agricultural, especially in Gobi Desert production mechanization.
